EOS research project CRUMBEL
Cremations, Urns and Mobility – Ancient population dynamics in Belgium
CRUMBLE will date the most interesting and relevant specimens using radiocarbon, to collect more in depth information about the chronology, development, and disappearance of cremation as funerary practice in Belgium. Thanks to the analyse of strontium isotopes, more information can also be obtained about mobility, lifestyles and evolution of funerary practices in Belgium, since the arrival of agriculture in the Neolithic to the arrival of Catholicism.
Coordinated by the VUB, this project gathers research teams from Universiteit Gent, ULB (Martine Vercauteren - Anthropology and Human Genetics, Faculty of Sciences & CRéA-Patrimoine, Faculty of Philosophy and Social sciences) and C-14 dating Laboratory, KIK-IRPA
